Synth Explorer SH101

‘Synth Explorer SH101’ is the second in a brand new series of royalty-free loops and one-shot samples that pay tribute to the legendry synthesisers and drum machines that have inspired generations of Electronic music producers from the early Electronic revolution right up to the current day. This Volume features the sounds of the classic Roland SH101. 

Produced in 1983 the SH101 was one solid Monophonic synth, capable of huge fat basses and squelchy resonant SFX but its super-fast envelope makes for awesome analogue percussion, making it perfect for producers of Techno, Drum & Bass and Acid!

The SH101 is a relatively simple 1 VCO analogue monosynth but deserves its place in the Hall of Fame. Highlights include a self-resonating filter, Pulse width Modulation, Variable Speed LFO with selectable Wave Shapes, Arpeggio, Simple Sequencer and a user upgradable Modulation Grip and Shoulder strap for anyone brave or crazy enough to jump around on stage with one strapped around their neck.

This edition of Synth Explorer sees a wealth of loop and one-shot samples covering a wide range of sounds perfect for Techno, Dubstep, Drum & Bass or even Experimental Electronica.

The collection features an inspiring range of sequencer and arp loops at 140 and 175 BPM and one-shot sounds that have been sourced directly from a real SH101 with varying degrees of additional processing including Heavy Distortion, Phaser, Delay, Reverb and Flanger.

In Detail expect to find 377M MB of content, with 104 Loops, 344 One-Shot Samples including 24 Arp Loops, 80 Sequencer Loops, 71 Drum & Percussion Hits, 45 Bass Shots, 57 SFX, 46 Lead Sounds, 16 Synth Multi-Sampled Instruments, 104 REX2 Files and 122 Soft Sampler Patches for Kontakt, Halion, EXS24, NN-XT and SFZ formats.
